Oracle DB Error ORA-01194 file string needs more recovery to be consistent

The following is the cause of this error:

An incomplete recovery session was started, but an insufficient number of logs were applied to make the file consistent. The reported file was not closed cleanly when it was last opened by the database. It must be recovered to a time when it was not being updated. The most likely cause of this error is forgetting to restore the file from a backup before doing incomplete recovery.

Action you can take to resolve this issue: Either apply more logs until the file is consistent or restore the file from an older backup and repeat recovery.
